Water for Elephants

I recently finished reading Water for Elephants for my book group and it was FANTASTIC!!! Great pick, Pia! It was one of those books that I probably never would have read if not required for book group. Even though it was a best seller and one of the books proudly on display right when you walk in the door of the bookstore, I still probably would not have read it. But, I loved it! And this is the exact reason why I love book group so much because it gets me to read things I normally would not have and most times, I feel very committed to finishing it, even if I don't like it. I highly recommend it to everyone!

Next book group pick is mine, The Glass Castle. Since I've read it already, I've moved on to Jodi Picoult's new book, Change of Heart. I'm only about 1/4 of the way through it and it's awesome. She is a great author!

Something to Live By...

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.Life is life, fight for it.-- Mother Teresa

About Me

Kenny and I have been married since November 2005. We have an amazing little boy, Charlie, that joined our family in June 2008. Kenny had the majority of a brain tumor removed in August 2008. That medical experience changed our lives for the better and we know now what really matters the most. We both love to travel and love to read but most of all we love to spend time together. Michelle loves shopping for bargains, cooking and getting a few moments to relax. Kenny loves cars and all other things engine powered. He has passed that love to little Charlie. Charlie loves to play with cars and trucks, read books and make his parents proud. I write this to record our family moments.
